We all have to deal with micro-managers, but when that person actually has authority over you, they can make life very difficult. We're wondering how you deal with a micro-managing boss.

We all know the signs of a micro-manager: they breathe down your neck, like things their way and their way only, and basically make you feel like you can't even do your own job. Organizational weblog Buttoned Up recently shared their tips for dealing with a micro-manager, but we know those bosses are everywhere, and that you guys probably have a lot of experience. So we're curious: How to you deal? Share your advice, experiences, or just plain frustrations with us in the comments. Photo by Casey Fleser.
